ence was present and seemed to be just
as much entertained as was Friday
nights house.
The curtain went up on Mrs. s. p.
Hamilton's beautiful japanese tableau.
All OF the figures were just as they we're
the night before and looked as though
they might have been standing in the
same positions ever since the curtain
dropped.
Mr.. Frank E. Rebarer sang at the end
ing OF the tableau a song entitled "Come
W here the Lindens Bloom" 1t was well
rendered anu was heartily applauded.

ond picture quaint German scene was
revealed. 1t represented a family picnic
party in rocky wood. In the foreground
were the father and mother, and ON their
right huntsman, while dispersed
about at play were little children.
Mrs. Clarence Connerat directed the
tableau and made OF it one OF the most
realistic pictures Of the whole set. She
was assisted by Mrs. Alice Hayward
and Mrs. Jett Howard, and the leading
characters were represented by Miss
Erna Schuster, Mr. +. +. Bryan and Mr..

insisted upon an encore and were reward
ed by pretty little song entitled 1.-THE
North Country" Mrs. Haynes isMn-
doubtedly an amateur artist of unusual
excellence, possessing in addition to a
soprano voice OF sweet and penetrating
quality with clear tones throughout the
entire compass, an easy, graceful and
charming stage presence.
IRELAND's PRETTY PICTURE.
The beauty of the Irish picture was its
simplicity. The tableau showed the in
terror OF plain home. A mother Miss
Pomroy) was kneeling in front of a
simple altar, children knelt in the back
ground and the husband paused reverently
at the door. Miss Parks had the manage
ment of the tableau. In it were
Miss POmroy, Miss Sullivan, little
Miss Carrie duBignon and others.
The curtain was called up the second
time on the picture. After it Mrs. Haynes
and Mr.. Rebarer sang ''Yienni al Milo

which were given Friday night, were
repeated with the same characters. The
musical feature of the programme was a
quartette. "On the Blue Danube" by Mrs.
Haynes, Miss Backus, MIR. Rebarer and
Mr.. Walker. After a long recall the
quartette reappeared and repeated
the number. The house seemed to
be in such good humor that the
quartette was temporarily discomposed.
seeing which amused the audience no
little. just before the last tableau Mir.
Rebarer sang Come Into the Garden,
Maud" and was loudly applauded.
